The Chinese started a whole harem of seven rubber women
Li Cheng spends his days taking care of his life—size silicone doll companions. A 58-year—old resident of Huishui, Guizhou Province, is a big fan of beautiful female figures and considers them his daughters.
In an interview with MailOnline, Li Cheng said that he does not use his dolls for sex, but only cares for them and dresses them up. He even takes them on vacation and shoots music videos for them. The Chinese spent more than 100 thousand yuan ($ 14.5 thousand), buying about 100 outfits for seven silicone roommates.

He is going to open a business for the design and production of fashionable clothes for his dolls, each of which costs at least 10 thousand yuan ($ 1,450). Why does he like these dolls so much? Li Cheng says, "Many Chinese call me and other doll fans perverts. I'm not going to make excuses. These dolls are beautiful. They are a combination of the best traits taken from different women. I just appreciate their beauty."
Although such dolls are sold as sex toys, the man claims that he does not consider them as devices for pleasure. He treats them like family members. Nevertheless, he encourages his 18-year-old son to satisfy his natural desires with the help of dolls. In January, when his son turned 18, Li Cheng gave him a rubber woman so that, as he says, "he could find a good use for her when he had such a need."
The father explained: "I want him to use a doll instead of accidentally getting infected with all sorts of diseases somewhere out there. When I was engaged in his sex education, I taught him how important it is to observe safety in sex."
Li Cheng and his son now live with seven dolls. Five of them belong to my father, and the other two were given to him by friends to look after them. The fact is that this is a married couple who got married, and now they have no time to take care of dolls. Most likely, Li Cheng will have seven more dolls over the next year, because his girlfriend is going to move abroad and needs someone to look after her dolls as well.
Previously, Li Cheng worked as a biochemical inspector at a local sanitary and epidemiological center. After divorcing his wife in 2004, he raised his son Yang Yang alone, who was only five years old at the time. The passion for dolls began in 2010, when Li Cheng visited Beijing. He went there with his then girlfriend, and together they went to a store where Japanese silicone dolls were sold.
Li Cheng recalls: "We were shocked by the beauty of the dolls. Unfortunately, each of them cost more than 70 thousand yuan (10 thousand dollars), and we could not afford any at that time." He adds that his girlfriend, who was in her early 20s at the time, became interested in dolls because she wanted to dress them up. They broke up in 2014, but Li Cheng's passion for dolls remained.
In the same year, he bought his first doll to cope with loneliness, because his son was always missing from school at that time. He called her Xiao Xiu—"Snowball". He took great care of her: he cleaned her every day, bought new dresses and walked with her. In an interview with the Chinese portal Pear Video, he said: "Sometimes when I drive a car, I put a doll in the passenger seat. And I feel like I have a companion." His son is cuddling up to the dolls in the backseat.
Li Cheng spends a lot of money on glamorous photos of Xiao Xiu. "It's too bad that there was no snow this winter. Otherwise, I could take Xiao Xiu out for a beautiful photo shoot with snow." After her, the man bought four more dolls so that he would not be so lonely.
His son, who has only one doll so far — Xiao Yin, believes that thanks to the dolls, the house is not so silent now. The young man says that to some extent the dolls have taken on female roles in their family. In defense of his hobby, Li Cheng says: "Collectors and users of sex dolls are absolutely normal people. Actually, we are more normal than those who call us strange, but at the same time they cheat on their sexual partners."
